Abstract: We examine formulations for the well-known b-matching problem
in the presence of integer demands on the edges. A subset M of edges
is feasible if for each node v, the total demand of edges in M incident
to it is at most bv . We examine the system of star inequalities for this
problem. This system yields an exact linear description for b-matchings
in bipartite graphs. For the demand version, we show that the integrality
gap for this system is at least 2
2 and at most 2
5 . For general... (Update)
